Is anyone using Stream Deck with Band-in-a-Box 2019? Maybe there's a template already.
Kind Regards Maurits

Welcome to the forum! I'm not familiar with the term, Stream Deck. Is that a product or brand name? If it's a product, can you provide a link? Is it this: https://www.elgato.com/en/gaming/stream-deckBut if you mean, does BIAB support using a MIDI controller like the Mackie Control Unit, then no. There is support for the Frontier Design Tranzport, but that unit is discontinued. BIAB can also output chords to MIDI devices. If I'm on the wrong track here, let me know.
BIAB 2024 Win Audiophile. Software: Studio One 6.5 Pro, Swam horns, Acoustica-7, Notion 6; Win 11 Home. Hardware: Intel i9, 32 Gb; Roland Integra-7, Presonus Studio 192, Presonus Faderport 8, Royer 121, Adam Sub8 & Neumann 120 monitors

CREATING A STREAM DECK PLUGINIf you don't have the programming skills (or time), you might be able to locate a skilled programmer at sites like https://fiverr.com. Though I didn't find a specific elgato programmer, any skilled programmer familiar with the requirements should be able to create an app. Here's the rub though --- as mentioned in another PGM forum thread, there does not seem to be a scripting language or API for either BB or RB that we can leverage without the accompanying app. USING BAND-IN-A-BOX REMOTE SERVER (BBRS)PGMUSIC: https://www.pgmusic.com/manuals/bbw2020full/chapter13.htmI suppose since this port seems to be bi-directional you might be able to communicate via this server, but without available documentation it would be a lot of experimentation. In BB2020 under the [drive:]\bb\BBHelper folder there is a program called BandinaBoxServer.exe Running this program sets up BB to receive commands via TCP port 7680. On my MS/Windows PC this server shows up as LISTENING on port 7680. - [BandinaBoxServer.exe] TCP 0.0.0.0:7680 AQUA:0 LISTENING
1. Press: [Windows-key] 2. Type: Command Prompt3. [Right-click] the Command Prompt App and select Run as administrator4. Type: netstat -a -b | more 5. Press: ENTER Using the "| more" option pauses the action. The [BandinaBoxServer] info should be at or the top. If one could communicate at least via the BBRS then at least we could script more cleanly.

Hi
Bit behind the curve in this one.
There is a list of hotkeys for BIAB on the internet. I am using the StreamDeck hot keys command to programme the main features of BIAB.
These are contained inside a profile so the page appears when BIAB is in focus.
In the main BB folder there are skin icons which can be used on the hot key buttons.
Hope this helps
John

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option
Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!
Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!
For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.
Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.
Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!
Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.
Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
